That’s not true. I joked about the worst shit that was happening while the medics were¹ trying to find the pieces.
¹sometimes metaphorically. The times when it wasn’t, the jokes were really bad. Hard to improvise a good stand up routine in those situations; you understand.
Black humor is a totally different thing and I’d react differently if David Hogg were laughing about school shootings (and have reacted differently when my friends who were directly affected by them do), but these are more like the dead baby jokes that teenagers tell for shock value, as opposed to humorizing pain. I said “you,” but I was referring to the people telling me these jokes, rather than the general you.
Yeah but I kind of do that everywhere, including for other people’s stuff, and I can’t be that special.
